There are two release source files in the directory:
hdf5-1.8.14-pre1.tar.gz is for Unix platforms
hdf5-1.8.14-pre1.zip is for Windows platforms
We will greatly appreciate if you test this pre-release on the platform(s) of your choice and report any problems found to this list as soon as possible. We have about one week to address any issues.
Notice to the autoconf Unix users: The default configuration for this release candidate is “production”.
If you wants more debugging code on, use “./configure —disable-production …”.
The list of the features, bug fixes, and platforms tested by The HDF Group can be found in the

* Removed SVN URLs from cmake files
* Fixed a bug in Cmake packaging for a missing Fortran module.
* Shared Library Version Numbers Changed (soname) due to interface changes.
* Configure Setting for Mac OSX has proper default values for PROD_XXX, DEBUG_XXX, and PROFILE_XXX flags
* CMake ConfigureChecks added two missing include files.
* Bison was upgraded to 2.7, and Flex was upgraded to 2.5.37, m4 upgraded to 1.4.17
* Autotools: Modified configure to add an entry at the beginning of AM_LDFLAGS for the hdf5 install directory.
* Configure flags error if REAL is same as DOUBLE PRECISION and both Fortran and HL library are enabled.
* Fixed Identifier Management Code which failed to reuse identifiers what have been freed.
* Removal of DllMain() from Static Windows Builds.
* Enforce Constraint on page_size Parameter in H5Pset_core_write_tracking().
* H5Ldelete_by_idx() fails on non-existent group name fixed.
* Bug in Test When Building Parallel HDF5 on PVFS2 fixed.
* MPI-IO Driver Tried to Allocate Space for Zero-length Dataset error fixed.
* SIZEOF Replaced by C_SIZEOF and STORAGE_SIZE.
* Non-functional API: h5pget_fill_value_f fixed.
* Interoperability with C HDF5: H5Literate and h5literate_f failure fixed.
* Interoperability with C HDF5: Constant INTEGER Parameters with the H5FD Interface failure fixed.
* Removed H5F_ACC_CREAT from C++ API.
* Seg Faults in H5TBread_field_name and H5TBread_field_name_f fixed.
* Possible Buffer Overflow in High-level (HL) APIs fixed.
* H5LTdtype_to_text was changed to truncate the string if the user buffer is too small.
* Visual Studio 2013 support is added for Windows platforms.
